My nickname is deltalima and I will be helping you with your computer problems.

The logs can take some time to research, so please be patient with me.

Please be aware that removing Malware is a potentially hazardous undertaking. I will take care not to knowingly suggest courses of action that might damage your computer. However it is impossible for me to foresee all interactions that may happen between the software on your computer and those we'll use to clear you of infection, and I cannot guarantee the safety of your system. It is possible that we might encounter situations where the only recourse is to re-format and re-install your operating system, or to necessitate you taking your computer to a repair shop.

Please note the following:

I will be working on your Malware issues, this may or may not, solve other issues you have with your machine.

The fixes are specific to your problem and should only be used for this issue on this machine.

Please continue to review my answers until I tell you your machine appears to be clear. Absence of symptoms does not mean that everything is clear.

If after 3 days you have not responded to this topic, it will be closed, and you will need to start a new one.

It's often worth reading through these instructions and printing them for ease of reference.

If you don't know or understand something, please don't hesitate to say or ask!! It's better to be sure and safe than sorry.

Please reply to this thread. Do not start a new topic.

Firstly, the description of your problem sounds more like a hardware issue than a malware problem. We can give the computer a thorough check up to make sure.

You have too many anti spyware programs running, Please uninstall the following

Advanced SystemCare 3Emsisoft Anti-Malware 5.0Spyware Terminator

One of these programs can be reinstalled when we are through, more than one makes the protection worse and not better.

Download and run OTLDownload OTL by Old Timer and save it to your Desktop.

If it gives you a warning at program start about rootkit activity and asks if you want to run a scan...click NO.

Run Gmer again and click on the Rootkit tab.

Look at the right hand side (under Files) and uncheck all drives with the exception of your C drive.

Make sure all other boxes on the right of the screen are checked, EXCEPT for "Show All".

Click on the "Scan" and wait for the scan to finish.Note: Before scanning, make sure all other running programs are closed and no other actions like a scheduled antivirus scan will occur while this scan completes. Also do not use your computer during the scan.

When completed, click on the Copy button and right-click on your Desktop, choose "New" > Text document. Once the file is created, open it and right-click again and choose Paste or Ctrl+V. Save the file as gmer.txt and copy the information in your next reply.

Double-click mbam-setup.exe and select then follow the prompts to install the program.

At the end, be sure a checkmark is placed next to Update Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware and Launch Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware, then click Finish.

If an update is found, it will download and install the latest version.

Once the program has loaded, select Perform quick scan, then click Scan.

When the scan is complete, click OK, then Show Results to view the results.

Be sure that everything is checked, and click Remove Selected.

When completed, a log will open in Notepad. Please post that log in your next reply.

The log can also be found here:

Launch Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware

Click on the Logs radio tab.

Note: If MBAM encounters a file that is difficult to remove, you will be presented with 1 of 2 prompts, click OK to either and let MBAM proceed with the disinfection process, if asked to restart the computer, please do so immediately. Failure to reboot will prevent MBAM from removing all the malware.

Malwarebytes infection was deleted after full scan. I can only assume Kaspersky on-line scanner deleted any effection that was necessary automatically as there was no "delete" button when the scan was finished.
